51 Inverter Cable and Overcurrent Protection Guide
The following is for use only as a guide.
We always recommend that you use the instruction
manual that came with your inverter for the sizing of
cable, fuses and circuit breakers.
These figures are based on a maximum of ten foot of cable
between the inverter and the battery(s).
